Move Parts from Stock and back to QA

Explanation

There are times when parts that are received into a stock location need to be re-inspected for some reason. The parts can be moved from a stock location and then back into an inspection location.

Use the move function in the Receipt/Details window for returning inventory registered purchase parts. You can move either a subset of the quantity or the entire quantity.

Note: If the entire quantity on a purchase order line is received into a stock location, the purchase order might have been closed. In this case, you must reopen the purchase order line before you can move the parts back to an inspection location.
